In 1848, when Jacques Offenbach (1819-1880) returned to Paris from his highly successful concert tour he was hailed in Le Corsaire as “le président du violoncelle” and in Le Ménestrel as “le violoncelliste pittoresque par excellence.” His own performance of the RÊVERIE AU BORD DELA MER in Paris was described as a “mélancholique et suave inspiration qu’on croirait empruntée à la muse de Schubert [a melancholy and suave inspiration that one would believe was borrowed from Schubert’s muse].” The cello work is a transcription of one of Offenbach’s own songs for voice and piano entitled DAS DEUTSCHE VATERLIED. This edition has been edited by Michael Kaye and Emilio Colón.
